Had asked this in the Raspbmc forum.Thought id ask it here.
Here's same post.
OK was having some buffering issues when playing streaming videos.Crackle,Youtube.etc.
It would pause waiting to buffer.
Followed this how to to setup advancedsettings.xml.
Mine looks like this..

Code:

<advancedsettings>
<network>
<buffermode>1</buffermode> <!-- Comment: Default is 1 -->
<cachemembuffersize>0</cachemembuffersize> <!-- Comment: Default is 20971520 bytes or 20 MB -->
<readbufferfactor>4.0</readbufferfactor> <!-- Comment: Default is 1.0 -->
</network>
</advancedsettings>

Now about the 0 cache. From what I read it caches to your SD card the amount it needs. Then clears it when video is stopped.
Is there away for it to make it use a USB thumb drive instead of the SD Card??

This will use 40mb of the pi ram instead of the sd card. Make sure memory split is at least 256
